		<p>Now that everything builds, the next step is to run an Eclipse instance with the EGit/JGit code of the workspace:</p>
		<ul>
			<li>Right click on the 
				<i>org.eclipse.egit.ui</i> project
			</li>
			<li>Debug As &gt; Eclipse Application</li>
		</ul>
		<p>This should create a new launch configuration and start a new nested Eclipse instance in debug mode. The created launch configuration can be edited, e.g. to change where the workspace of the nested Eclipse should be located.</p>
		<p>The launch configuration can also be used in normal (non-debug) mode of course.</p>
